05.07.09 CAPTAIN KIRK MEETS CAPTAIN KIRK

Here it is, the moment you haven’t particularly waited for: Chris Pine, who stars as James T. Kirk in the new Star Trek movie, introducing himself to the original Captain Kirk, William Shatner.

Somehow, I was expecting a little more from this moment. Like, I dunno. This could be the opening scene in Shatnerquake — as soon as Pine shakes Shatner’s hand, the fabric of space and time rips open and Shatner-Kirk kills Pine with a phaser while the real Shatner looks on. “No one. Can? Be me but. Me!” yells Shatner-Kirk.

But no. They just shook hands and Shatner introduced Pine to Mrs. Shatner. Real life is lame.

I could have used the subtitles, but at the end I think Shatner was inviting Pine back to his pool for a drink.

It’s like, that one time, in TNG, when Worf’s shuttlecraft engines caused him to flux, quantum-style, when he enters a spatial rift, and he enters a parallel universe, and when the crew tries to get him back to his correct state, the Bajorans attack, and rupture the fissure, causing the different universes to merge, and there are thousands of different Enterprise realities visible, and one of them has Riker at the helm but the Borg had beaten the shit out of the Federation in that universe, and he’s all wild bearded and crazy.

It’s like that.

I’m a little depressed to have understood Punch’s comment.

Sports and TV Fan Following Ufford around the Interwebs says:

I am more embarrassed than depressed at understanding Punch’s comment.

But I think it’s more like that one TNG ep from crappy Season 2 where Captain Picard met the Captain Picard from six hours in the future and that Captain Picard was a blithering mumbling idiot.
